2D Side Shooter Build
​
In this build the player sprite I made Can not only shoot but can aim while doing it AND can use 3 different ammo types each with it's own rate of fire.
​
Here are the 3 types of ammo below:
Rapid-fire Bullet Bullet Ammo:
Shotgun Bullet Ammo:
Normal Bullet Ammo:
Here is a video showing off my game play and explaining why the level design is so simple:
From a game design point of view different types of ammo means a lot more varied game play such as only being able to destroy this enemy with a specific type of ammo or deciding for yourself which ammo type best fits the situation and that's just 3 ammo types in total I could add more like homing ammo or even a screen nuke.
